Sivas carpets, a traditional handicraft from Türkiye, are renowned for their intricate designs, high loop count, and use of natural materials. These carpets, often priced at around $1,800 per square meter, require significant time and effort to produce, with some custom-made pieces containing up to one million knots. Customers usually wait up to a year for their order.
Made entirely by hand using natural wool and vegetable dyes, Sivas carpets have been passed down through generations, surviving from the Ottoman period to today. The carpets’ unique patterns, including famous peacock designs, are especially sought after in both domestic and international markets, with buyers from countries like Japan showing strong interest. The fine craftsmanship, vibrant colors, and durability make Sivas carpets highly prized worldwide.
